Patient's question:
The baby has been born for 4 days now. Yesterday, the jaundice level was measured at 12. Today, it was measured at 15. When the baby was born two days ago, they didn't understand how to change diapers. The night they were fed water, they had three bowel movements of meconium, but there were no bowel movements for the next two days. Then, the jaundice level increased. There are also red spots on the baby's back, which is a sign of meconium poisoning. This is the baby's test report. Thank you.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the baby has been at home for four days, has high jaundice, and is fed little milk. After two days without a bowel movement, the jaundice increased. It is recommended to enhance breastfeeding to allow the baby to urinate and defecate more, so that the jaundice can be expelled in time. Take Yin Zhi Huang and pay close attention to observe. The above content is the entire answer to the question: "The baby is 4 days old now, and the jaundice level measured yesterday was 15, is it serious?" I hope the patient can be free from illness and recover soon~!
